What a ****ty, ****ty morning! 

At the start of this year I was dead set certain I'd finally be putting my GF guarantee to use and heading off to watch the Dees defend their crown.

What a [censored] up of a season.

As to the outcome today. I'd be physically ill if I have to watch Scott arrogantly soaking in the victory  .  Go  Swans!

    If Geelong win, I will stop watching on the final siren (or earlier if they have it sewn up).

    My fervent hope other than a Syd win is that Dangerfield does NOT win the NSM.

    This GF is a real struggle because it brings back the pain of not experiencing this live last year.

    Its fantastic that we won last year but it hurts to have been denied that joy and seeing what the GF fans have this week makes me jealous.

    Jane Bunn 

    Geelong 6

    First goal Tom Papley

    Norm Smith Jeremy Cameron

    Top of the ladder, smashed the Lions. Injury at the Swans. 

    Scott Gullan 

    Geelong 28

    First goal Will Hayward

    Norm Smith Patrick Dangerfield

    Best team for the year for a reason. Reliance on stars gone, have a sense of destiny about them

    Sam Landsberger 

    Sydney 2

    First goal Errol Gulden

    Norm Smith Tom Papley

    Greatest season gets the greatest Grand Final as the greatest of all time gets his first premiership medal in the last game of a Buddy long contract.

    Gerard Whateley

    Geelong 18

    First goal Tom Hawkins

    Norm Smith Patrick Dangerfield

    Perfectly poised to complete a brilliantly orchestrated campaign.

    Rebecca Williams 

    Geelong 6

    First goal Tyson Stengle

    Norm Smith Jeremy Cameron

    The dominant side of the competition all year with the weapons to get the job done.

    Glenn McFarlane 

    Geelong 16

    First goal Lance Franklin

    Norm Smith Jeremy Cameron

    Sixteen wins in a row would be fitting end for the most consistent and best team of the season.

    Jay Clark

    Geelong 15

    First goal Tyson Stengle

    Norm Smith Tom Stewart 

    Cats will play with a spare defender to take sting out of Sydney pressure. 

    Lauren Wood

    Geelong 16

    First goal Tom Papley

    Norm Smith Sam De Koning

    Experience counts for plenty and these Cats have it in spades. It’s Danger time. 

    Mark Robinson

    Geelong 28

    First goal Tyson Stengle

    Norm Smith Tom Stewart

    Perfectly balanced between offence and defence. Will make it 16 in a row and end one of the more dominant season by a club.

    Simeon Thomas-Wilson

    Sydney 4

    First goal Brad Close

    Norm Smith 

    Chris Cavanagh

    Geelong 18

    First goal Tyson Stengle

    Norm Smith Tom Stewart

    The Cats have been the best team all year and don’t have many weak links.

    Jon Ralph 

    Geelong 9

    First goal Patrick Dangerfield

    Norm Smith Tyson Stengle

    Cameron and Stengle the game-breakers despite Sydney’s pressure turning this into an old-fashioned scrap.

    Tim Watson

    Geelong 22

    First goal Tyson Stengle

    North Smith Jeremy Cameron

    Geelong’s form is compelling. The Cats have shown few weaknesses in their 15-game winning streak.

    Liz Walsh 

    Sydney 8

    First goal Isaac Heeney

    Norm Smith

    Mick Malthouse

    Geelong 36

    First goal Jeremy Cameron

    Norm Smith Patrick Dangerfield

    Geelong is in great form, fit, and has been the master of all. Sydney may be unbalanced without Sam Reid.

    Kath Loughnan

    Sydney 15

    First goal Tom Papley

    Norm Smith Luke Parker

    Sydney’s elite pressure over four quarters coupled with their dynamic forward line and underrated backline will deliver the Swans an earlier than expected premiership.

    Ebony Marinoff 

    Sydney

    First goal Chad Warner 

    Norm Smith

    Sally Capp 

    Geelong 56

    First goal Brad Close

    Norm Smith Gary Rohan

    The Grand Final is back where it belongs in Australia’s sporting capital. The city is the winner.

    David King 

    Geelong 22

    First goal Tom Hawkins

    Norm Smith Jeremy Cameron

    Healthy, too much experience, too many match winners forward of centre.

    Mick McGuane

    Geelong 15

    First goal Will Hayward

    Norm Smith Cam Guthrie

    Geelong’s defensive mechanisms will disrupt the Swans ball movement and their attack is potent.

    Dermott Brereton

    Geelong 5

    First goal Patrick Dangerfield

    Norm Smith Patrick Dangerfield

    Sarah Jones

    Geelong 14

    First goal Tom Hawkins

    Norm Smith Jeremy Cameron

    I’d love to see Joel Selwood - a champion on & off the field lift the cup. 

    Matt Turner

    Geelong 6

    First goal Gary Rohan

    Norm Smith Mitch Duncan

    Have looked like the premiers for a long time now and should be a bit too strong on Saturday.

    James Hird

    Geelong 10

    First goal Tom Hawkins

    Norm Smith Joel Selwood

    Graham Cornes 

    Geelong 41

    First goal Isaac Heeney

    Norm Smith

    Chloe Molloy 

    Geelong 

    First goal Will Hayward

    Norm Smith Jeremy Cameron

    The best team all year prove why, with the best player in the competition firing.

    So lucky me got tickets in the MCC ballot, don't get me wrong I'm very thankful but just can't help but feel a tad disappointed it's not us today.

    As I stated in another thread it would be good if some of the boys got to the G today to make them realise what they've missed out on playing at the G gf day.

    After loads of rain it is an absolutely stunning day here in the northern Rivers.

    I never thought winning a flag would lead to feeling so hollow today.

    Thoughts with everyone today.

    I hope this burns our club to come back harder next year.

    Gardening, beach then coffin bay oysters, prawns, champagne and beers.....and some OxyContin if the cats get up.

    See you all at the big dance next year. 

    Go Dees.

    Changed my mind, a dodgy score review over-turning the goal after the Cats celebrate. Then Scott’s head explodes

    Jealousy aside, it is so great to see Grand Final back at the G. Seeing some of those MCC people waiting since Thurs and the old door buster sale thing. Fantastic.

    I just feel so frustrated. Dees should be there.  Such a disappointing end to the year.  I’d be happy to play either in the GF. We owned the Swans until the umps changed the course. 
    I think it’s the Cats this year.

    Apparently Holmes will be a late out according to channel 7.

    Heading to the game today. Nothing could possibly go close to seeing the boys play a GF at the G, however after no grand finals here for 2 seasons it’s still exciting to see one live.

    Cats by 6 goals.

    Mind you I have under rated the Swans for the lst 10 years.

    Decent chance Cats kick 7 goals to 1 in the first Q and it’s game over 

    Swans need to play a massive first Q

    I'm genuinely debating with myself;

    "Watch this grand final or use the time to go shopping for vitamins and supplements with my wife, ready for her visit to overseas family."

    The only positive, so far, today is that we are reigning premiers for the next 6 hours

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
